There are cool kicks and there are kicks for cool weather, but with the notable exception of The North Face Men's Back-to-Berkeley Boots, there are few cool kicks for guys in cool weather. You don't have to be a jeans-in-boots hipster to pull off fashionable pairings with this innovative, insulated and functional footwear--the rugged combination of ballistic mesh polyester and waterproof suede makes a watertight case for utility and versatility. The Back-to-Berkeley Boot has a waterproof and breathable Hydroseal(TM) membrane that keeps feet dry--even when you're hiking across campus in a deluge. Cool color combinations aside, you won't find the best feature on the Back-to-Berkeley Boot until you turn it upside down and check out the durable TNF Winter Grip(TM) rubber outsole with triangular, temperature-sensitive Ice Pick(TM) lugs. Exclusive to footwear from The North Face, these rubber Ice Pick(TM) lugs actually harden in cold weather for improved traction on hardpack snow and icy walkways.
